Iterate - Autonomous Improvement Loop

Inspired by Karpathy's autoresearch: constrain scope, clarify success with one mechanical metric, loop autonomously. The agent modifies code, measures the result, keeps improvements, discards regressions, and repeats - until any stop condition fires or the user interrupts.

The power is in the constraint. One metric. One scope. One loop. Git as memory.

Preflight

Before the loop starts, do the work that makes the loop effective. Don't skip steps - this discipline is what separates a productive overnight run from a flailing one.
